In Nigeria's Niger delta, an area devastated by decades of oil pollution, Martha Agbani and her team of women are replanting mangrove forests one seedling at a time. Their work goes beyond environmental restoration: by regrowing the mangroves, they are reclaiming ownership of lost lands and livelihoods damaged by the oil industry.
